For thousands of years, only His Majesty could turn the grassland that Hu Di had occupied for thousands of years into a backyard, right?
More importantly, was he going to build the Great Wall in the Starry Sea?
Was this something a human should do?
Meng Tian racked her brains but still could not understand. How could a person build a city wall into the sky?
This was simply impossible, right?
If that was really the case, then only gods could do it, not humans…
"Your Majesty, I understand."
Meng Tian forcefully swallowed her questions and bowed.
As a subject, who would question the ruler?
Therefore, even if she was extremely puzzled, Meng Tian could only search for the answer herself.
"Meng Tian, find some time and let Imperial Sister bring Meng Xun into the palace to greet his aunt.”
Ying Zheng didn't put on any airs at all as he started to talk to Meng Tian.
"This official was negligent. Tomorrow, let the princess bring Xun 'er into the palace.”
Meng Tian smiled apologetically with an awkward expression.
Soon, the tense atmosphere in the hall eased, and the monarch and minister chatted happily.
Ying Zheng set up a small banquet, and the two of them chatted happily while drinking.
The Meng family had served the Qin Dynasty for three generations. Before Ying Zheng was in power, he had a deep friendship with Meng Tian.
The two of them were not only monarch and minister, but they were also childhood playmates.
The reason why he was able to eradicate Lao Ai and drive away the Prime Minister Lu Buwei was largely due to the Meng and Wang clans.
Great Qin had swept through the six countries, and the Wang family had made great contributions.
However, Ying Zheng knew very well that Meng Tian's battle achievements were no less than Wang Jian and his son's.
It was just that Wang Jian was the commander of the three armies, so that was why he would shine ten thousand feet.
As for Meng Tian's side, she had also made outstanding military achievements. She was invincible and swept through the six countries. Meng Tian had also made outstanding military achievements.
Wang Jian was old, and Wang Ben had been recuperating at home due to his injuries.
Meng Tian was the only one who could shoulder the burden of the Great Qin Empire's future.
After three rounds of dishes and five rounds of wine, Ying Zheng said in a drunken voice,""Meng Tian, do you think the four barbarians will become dust in my hands?”
"With Your Majesty's great talent and strategy, in time, the Great Qin Cavalry will be able to sweep across the world and completely destroy the four barbarians.”
Meng Tian put down his wine cup. Although he was also drunk, he still knew his limits. He did not lose his mind and cupped his hands towards Ying Zheng.
"Well said. Drink up."
Ying Zheng laughed out loud, then raised his head and downed the cup of wine in his hand.
"To Your Majesty."
Meng Tian also downed it in one gulp.
"If you want to make the country prosperous, you should first study. What do you think, Minister Meng?”
Ying Zheng put down his wine goblet and asked suddenly.
Hmm?
Meng Tian's hand, which was holding the wine goblet, was slightly startled, but she quickly recovered.
What does Your Majesty mean?
Why did he suddenly think of studying?
"Your Majesty, the Great Qin Empire's people have been taught by officials, and this is a national policy set by Your Majesty.”
Meng Tian thought that the Emperor was drunk and reminded him carefully.
"It's good to have an official as a teacher, but it's not enough to educate the people.”
Ying Zheng's eyes shone with a sharp light as he said solemnly.
"Your Majesty, the people know etiquette, are loyal and filial, do their best, and are obedient.”
"The students are erudite, famous for their benefits, and are eager to pursue them.”
"The philosophers are talented and pursue benefits to avoid harm.”
"If everyone in the world regards themselves as a mortal and only cares about fame and fortune, how can the country and the world be defended?”
"If everyone in the world regards themselves as philosophers and is only burdened by false reputation, how can the four seas and eight wastelands be expanded?”
Meng Tian expressed her opinion and sent out two soul interrogations.
Ying Zheng knew that Meng Tian's worries were not without reason, but everything in the world had its pros and cons.
The policy of obscuring the people was beneficial to the stability of the country and the control of the imperial court.
However, the drawbacks were also very obvious. If one did not think about making progress, one would eventually bring disaster upon oneself.
The Great Qin Empire had always been proud of its open-mindedness. Whether it was the craftsmanship of a master craftsman or the strategy of governing the country, as long as it was beneficial to the Great Qin Empire, it would not reject anything.
He accepted the wisdom of various schools of thought in the court and served the country faithfully.
Gather all kinds of craftsmen to work for the country.
As such, be it in terms of weapons or strategies, Great Qin far surpassed the six countries. How could it not win?
No matter how high or low the Great Qin Empire was, everyone was contributing to the empire. This was why the Great Qin Empire could unify the four seas and sweep through the six countries.
"Meng Qing has also read the scriptures since childhood. Do you also pursue fame and fortune?”
Ying Zheng did not refute Meng Tian, but changed the topic.
Eh!
Meng Tian's face turned red from being rebuked. She lowered her head, feeling extremely awkward.
"There are many loyal people who slaughter dogs, and many unfaithful people who are scholars.”
In order to ease Meng Tian's embarrassment, Ying Zheng slowly told her the words from his future memories.
"Since Your Majesty knows this, why do you still have the idea of studying?”
Meng Tian was puzzled. Even though she was being disrespectful, she could not help but ask.
"Although you're right, it's reasonable.”
"But Meng Qing, those who are jealous have no virtue, and the king has no virtue. How can he steal the imperial power and control the people?”
"Gentlemen and villains cannot hide from my black pupils.”
"If wealth can't help the world, it's unjust. If learning can't help all living beings, it's unkind.”
"I am rich in the four seas and hold the important weapons of heaven and earth in my hands. Why should I be afraid of the heartless people in the world?”
"Not only do I want to learn, I also want to be the teacher of the world.”
"Those who rebel against me can be killed by everyone in the world. This is the direction of righteousness.”
"Wouldn't it be laughable if you worry about the world because of some petty people?”
Ying Zheng stood up shakily, pulled out the Tai'a Sword, and pointed it at the top of the hall, as if it was going to pierce through the firmament to show the will of an emperor.
"Your Majesty's breadth of mind is not something ordinary people can compare to.”
Meng Tian looked at the Emperor's straight back and said with admiration.
"Zhen wants to organize a national school. Tomorrow, I will let the courtiers discuss this matter.”
Ying Zheng's eyes sparkled with a bright light as he said in an extremely firm tone.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this will be met with a lot of opposition.”
Meng Tian pondered for a while and reminded him.
Ying Zheng revealed a cold smile. He obviously knew what Meng Tian meant.
Teaching the world had always been in the hands of the students.
Running a national school would undoubtedly hurt the interests of these people.
But even so, he would never back down.
